EXHIBIT A
1
INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT FOR THE TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP OF
MOBILE INTEROPERABLE TACTICAL SOLUTION VEHICLE This Agreement is made and entered into as of _________________ by and between
Salt Lake City Corporation, a municipal corporation of the State of Utah (the “SLC”), and the
West Valley City, a political subdivision of the State of Utah (the “WVC”), each individually
referred to as a “Party” and collectively referred to as the “Parties.”
RECITALS
A. Both SLC and WVC were participants in the Urban Areas Security Initiative grant
program for the Wasatch Front urban area as established by the United States Department of
Homeland Security (the “UASI”).
B. As part of the UASI, grant funds were allocated to Salt Lake City to construct and
maintain several Mobile Interoperable Tactical Solution Vehicles (individually, a “MITS
Vehicle”) for use in emergencies and other operations throughout the Wasatch Front urban area
and the State of Utah.
C. The vehicles were titled and held in the name of Salt Lake City Corporation as it
was the entity primarily responsible for their creation, staffing, and maintenance. However, the
grant funds were allocated for the benefit of all participants in the UASI and WVC has
participated in the MITS Vehicle program.
D. The UASI grant funding for the Wasatch Front has since been terminated. As a
result, individual members of the UASI will now become responsible for the maintenance of the
assets acquired with grant funds.
E. The Parties believe it is in the best interests of the citizens served by both Parties,
and the State of Utah as a whole, to have the MITS Vehicles staged at separate locations
throughout the Wasatch Front and maintained by separate entities.
F. The Parties wish to enter into an agreement for the disposition of one of the MITS
Vehicles so that it may be owned and maintained by WVC and be staged in a manner to best meet
the emergency and other needs of the citizens of the Wasatch Front and State of Utah.
G. The Utah Interlocal Cooperation Act (Utah Code Chapter 11-13) provides a means
by which Utah governmental entities can enter into cooperative agreements with other Utah
governmental entities.

the Vehicle once ownership is transferred. However, SLC and WVC mutually agree to
coordinate their efforts with respect to the use of all MITS Vehicles so as to best serve the
emergency needs of the area and beyond.
3. NO ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION. As the funds for the creation of the
Vehicle were grant funds to benefit the entire UASI, no additional consideration will be paid
from WVC to SLC for the Vehicle. The Parties acknowledge the sufficiency of the
consideration contained herein. WVC will be responsible for costs or expenses associated with
